<p>I devoted pretty much all of my Sunday this week to try out a couple of ideas that I had recently.  First up was a shirt with a <a rel="lightbox" href="http://seanoconnor.info/wp-content/images/crafting_february08/coyshirt1[1].jpg"  title="Shirt number 2 has the design more to the front of the shirt, but still along the bottom.">bleached design</a>.  I went with a simple coy inspired design.  It wasn&#8217;t completely successful, but it came out well enough to encourage me to try it again (perhaps combining it with screen printing in some way).  Next up was a <a rel="lightbox" href="http://seanoconnor.info/wp-content/images/crafting_february08/cardholder2[1].jpg"  title="Side 1 of the business card holder.  I tried to design it to fit the cards as closely as possible to make it small and easy to carry.  I made it slightly too small though...">business card holder</a> made with those cool melty beads I used to make my <a rel="lightbox" href="http://seanoconnor.info/wp-content/images//"  title="">nintendo themed ornaments</a>.  This was also not entirely successful, but I was really just testing it out.  Turns out it is not very easy to fuse together a box made of these beads.  Next go around I&#8217;ll probably use some sort of glue or epoxy to bind together the sides.  All in all, these were really fun things to try out!  (Click the thumbnails for the whole gallery of images).</p>

<p>Also, Saturday night I went out to see a friend of mine and his band <a href="http://www.myspace.com/vinnyvegas" title="Vinny Vegas on Myspace" target="_blank">Vinny Vegas</a> play at <a href="http://theottobar.com/" title="Ottobar Baltimore, Maryland" target="_blank">The Ottobar</a>.  I highly recommend, they put on a really great show.</p>
